Question
Calculate the osmotic pressure of a solution containing 2.7 g of glucose ( C₆Hâ‚â‚‚O₆ ) in 250 mL of water at 27°C. ( R = 0.0821 L atm/mol K, Molar mass of glucose = 180 g/mol )
Explanation
Given:
Calculate the osmotic pressure of a solution containing 2.7 g of glucose ( C₆Hâ‚â‚‚O₆ ) in 250 mL of water at 27°C. ( R = 0.0821 L atm/mol K, Molar mass of glucose = 180 g/mol )
These values define the system as per NCERT data.
Formula:
Moles of glucose = 2.7/180 = 0.015 mol.
This is the standard NCERT relation for this phenomenon.
Substitution & Calculation:
Volume = 0.25 L. Molarity = 0.015/0.25 = 0.06 M . Pi = 0.06 × 0.0821 × 300 = 1.478 atm .
Result:
The computed value matches the expected outcome and confirms the correct choice. Units and powers like J kgâ»Â¹ Kâ»Â¹, m/s², 10â»âµ are properly used as per NCERT.
